Notes
Whip the egg whites till it is stiff and fluffy. Don't over whip the egg whites else it may get dry.
Combine egg white and egg yolk mixture gently else it may deflate.
Bake in a water bath for slow and steady baking.
Invert the cake immediately so it retains it shape and doesn't carry on cooking.
STORAGE
Store the cake wrapped in a parchment paper for 2 days before slicing. Sliced cake can be served for a week.
